Necktie

If a woman gifts a necktie to a man, this symbolizes in K-Dramaland that she wants to be with him. In other words, to gift a necktie means “Please be mine,” as somebody in Secret Hotel (E4) explained. A necktie thus allows to lay possessive claims on a specific person.
A typical interaction between a (to be) couple is that the woman straightens out the necktie for the man; allowing a certain physical closeness.
